For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost - Luke 19:10.

To break the power of devil

Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might break the power of him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil— and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death - Hebrews 2:14,15.

The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work -1 John 3:8.

To help us & provide a way of escape when tempted

Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted - Hebrews 2:18.

 No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it - 1 Corinthians 10:13.

To give us light

I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness - John 12:46.

To reveal God’s glory

And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth - John 1:14.4.

To live through Him

In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him - 1 John 4:9.

To receive the adoption as sons

But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons - Galatians 4:4,5.

To do the will of the Father

For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me - John 6:38.

To serve and to give His life as a ransom for many

For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many - Mark 10:45.

To call sinners to repentance

For I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance - Mathew 9:13.

To give us an everlasting life

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life - John 3:16.
